summary

This amendment changes the year that the term limits proposed in the bill would take effect from 2010 to 2014 to coincide with the gubernatorial election. It restricts the terms that Senators and members of the House of Representatives may serve to 2 consecutive 4-year terms or a 10-year consecutive maximum, whichever is longer, to allow for those Senators and Representatives who are elected in 2008 or 2012 or a person who is elected at a special election less than 2 years before the next regular election to serve up to 10 years.
